SEEKING
Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
I have been writing material that I feel suits the Post Hardcore Genre and I am looking to form a band of like minded musicians.
I am a very experienced Drummer once signed professionally with Warner Brother Records, and I have great experience in the music industry and I know what it takes to be a great drummer.
I have played in front of crowds of various sizes from venues with a capacity of 150 people like the Barfly in Camden Town and The Water Ratz in Kings Cross London, to festivals with crowds of 80,000 such as the Bristol Balloon Festival and Free at the D in Aberdeen.
I have worked in music my whole life on numerous levels both live and in the studio with 3 UK top 40 singles under my belt
I have worked with the likes of Phil Thornalley (The Cure, The Jam, James Blunt) and Martin Glover A.K.A. Youth (U2, The Verve, Primal Scream and Depeche Mode) Phill Tennant (The Waterboys).
I feel that I have a great work ethic when it comes to writing, studio and live work. I’m always keen to let the engineer/producer do their job and get the tracks down coherently but with lots of energy and power. I’m very open to musical and lyrical idea’s in order to create great music.
The experience that I have gained as a musician has helped me to grow musically giving me a great sense of what works and what doesn't, enabling me to work well with my fellow musicians, in order to entertain a crowd and keep the excitement of and gig alive for as long as possible.
If you love Post Hardcore, Metal and Punk Rock, and a musician interested in forming a band, then please send an email to [email protected] or you can call me on 07544808668.
I look forward to hearing from you
